Today, we cut the ribbon and broke some bread, or more accurately shared some seriously delicious dishes, at Izakaya by Aiya, now open at 4833 N. Western Avenue.
The Japanese-inspired restaurant is currently in a soft opening, with the me u continuing to grow as they settle into the new space. We’re excited to welcome them to the neighborhood and look forward to seeing what they add to the menu next.
Stop by, try something new, and give Izakaya by Aiya a@warm Lincoln Square welcome.

“How lucky can one NEIGHBORHOOD get?”

Pretty lucky, we’d say.

We’re fortunate to have a community cornerstone like the Old Town School of Folk Music right here in Lincoln Square. An institution that has been making our neighborhood richer through music, arts, education, and community for decades, while drawing people from across Chicago and beyond to experience what makes this place so special.

And now, we get to enjoy this incredible John Prine mural on Lincoln Avenue on the outside of the Old Town School. We're feeling pretty lucky.

Fellow musician Jon Langford and artist Darius Dennis teamed up to paint the massive mural on the Lincoln Square business.
